South Norwalk (Metro-North Station) - Platform and Track Configuration

Platform and Track Configuration

This station has two high-level island platforms. Each is 10 cars long on the Northeast Corridor, but much shorter for the outer tracks. The western platform, adjacent to Tracks 3 and 5, is generally used by westbound New Haven Line trains via Track 3, and by Danbury Branch trains via Track 5. The eastern platform, adjacent to Tracks 4 and 6, is generally used by eastbound New Haven Line trains via Track 4, or Danbury Branch trains via Track 6.

The New Haven Line has six tracks at this location. The two inner tracks, not adjacent to either platform, are used only by express trains.

Famous quotes containing the words platform and/or track:

    I marched in with the men afoot; a gallant show they made as they marched up High Street to the depot. Lucy and Mother Webb remained several hours until we left. I saw them watching me as I stood on the platform at the rear of the last car as long as they could see me. Their eyes swam. I kept my emotion under control enough not to melt into tears.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Anyone who tries to keep track of what is happening in China is going to end up by wearing all the skin of his left ear from twirling around on it.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
